Playing with Legos®

Lego play session during a Service and Innovation Design masters thesis workshop by Katja Tschimmel on the M62 methodology of Design Thinking.

After my first Service and Innovation Design masters seminar at Laurea University I was proud to report to my five-year-old niece that I played with Legos at school this week. Yeah, my school is pretty cool.

This left me to ask "What does it mean that a five-year-old identifies with my profession better than some adults?" At this question, I searched for a way to explain how designers balance the benefits of play and the design attitude within the context of more traditional business attitudes.
